I have the heat a 6.. they were just beat out by the spurs... don't like Tony Parker and his french little smug face. Plus what he did to his ex-wife was f'ed up... specially since he slept with his ex team mates wife... that is low...

I keep checking the NBA Rumor mill every 15 mins to see if something happens.. .ug...

I was excited about getting a real Center. But I agree with management of not offering him 15Million... that is just too much. I think 13 million was the max we should offer. I think the Knicks are making a poor choice, becuase now there is no way they are going to get Paul, Melo, and Amare team going... Best they could do is Paul, Melo, Chandler... which is not as exciting and probably doesn't fit Coach Dantoni's system...

Here is an idea. Say no way we get Chandler, and Knicks need to dump Turiaf to make that happen. We take Turiaf and Fields, in return for Charles Jenkins. They waive billups, we can pick himup off the wire. Turiaf comes off the books next year, we get a backup C without committing huge $$. Then if Orlando is dead set on trading Howard, u can offer them Klay, beans, Udoh, wright. Say Howard doesn't commit to stay, ok so do a sign and trade once we have Howard to la for Bynum. End of the day we get a center in Bynum, and they get Howard. If Orlando doesn't trade Howard, u still have a lot of cap room

Just read the article, that's crazy. I'm not sure I agree with it, even though I'm happy the deal isn't going down, Stern shouldn't be allowed to veto this deal regardless if the league owns the team. That NBA exec sounded pissed.

They want to sell the team, and want the next owner to make that decision. With out Paul team is worth way less. That I can agree with.
